How does PayPal work?

In order to choose payment via PayPal you must have a Verified PayPal account. PayPal is typically faster and more secure than receiving a paper check. We send payment to your PayPal account within 3 business days after your items are received at our warehouse. Once we send the payment via PayPal it normally shows up in your PayPal account the same day. Once it is in your PayPal account you can use your PayPal balance at any merchant that accepts PayPal or you can transfer the money to a bank account you have linked to you PayPal account.

When you sign up or complete your order you can specify your PayPal Email address. This should be the same email address you use when you log into PayPal! You can update your PayPal email address here.

What to do if you get a message that your PayPal email is unverified

To protect your account and funds we only send PayPal payments to verified PayPal Accounts. If you are seeing the error message that your account is unverified it could mean that your PayPal account does not have a confirmed bank account associated with it or the name you used at sellbackyourBook.com is different than the name in your PayPal account. To fix this you just need to make sure your PayPal Account is verified and the name on your PayPal account exactly matches the name in your sellbackyourBook.com account.
